Today I went to get my cars check engin light checked there was two codes thrown the map sensor and a air intake temp sensor keep in mind car ran and drove fine before anything was done . I didn't get the air temp sensor yet but replaced map sensor after I replaced it I started car it idled great so I went to take for spin and and as soon as I hit accelerator I stalled out. I started back up idled fine I aggressively pressed accelerator this time managed to get rpm up to 2.5k but wouldn't go any further let off then I tried again lightly and stalled again I already cleaned maf sensor no luck. Any ideas as to what could've happened

You should install the intake temp snesor and run some wuality fuel system cleaner such as BG44K. Nothing else works like it. You wil have to go to a car dealerhhip parts department to get it and it $20.00 a bottle. Run 2 bottles on a full tank of gas each. You maaaaay notice some othe quirks withthe engnie as it works getting the deposits out. By the end of the thrid full tank you will notice the difference.
